NIGHTMARES ON WAX

My first wax model, thought by adding the yellow food dye it would look alright but it's starting to turn banana yellow. Watch this space

Le Maroc

 I came across this French book, Le Maroc by Jean-Louis Miege, in the depths of the UoM library. It was published in 1952 as part of a Collection Le Beaux Pays. Although I haven't translated the text, there are some great photographs of Fez and other Moroccan cities at the time - and I'd go as far to say that nothing has changed! If you want to have a look, I'll bring it along to studio!
